Embedding sustainability across a total project portfolio

Making the case for investment in sustainable buildings presents a significant challenge in the face of budgetary and teaching pressures. Institutions with a high number and diverse range of facilities must provide clear, value-driven arguments for best practice that is not limited to flagship buildings. Meeting the rising expectations of staff and students, whilst anticipating regulatory developments, requires serious engagement with decision makers - backed up by robust strategy and assessment frameworks. Going beyond standard ‘green’ considerations, we will explore the case for whole-campus sustainability with a focus on life cycle value: financial, environmental and – importantly – improving wellbeing.
